Platform: console application under nt4.

There should be a way to be able to receive and process keyboard events in a
console application with the similar granularity as in an awt-based application.
Perhaps there needs to be a way to reach the jvm's event queue.

It seems impossible to use input streams in a way such that they don't block
until return is pressed and special keys are not detected.
